Recycled Bottle Bags



The Broadway Wicked bag is made out of 100% recycled plastic bottles. Why? To take advantage of plastic and to protect the environment. Duh!

Used plastics are reprocessed to form new materials. Then the material is used for something completely different from their original state. Sounds like a miracle, doesn't it? However, the process of melting the plastic and creating a new form is complicated and expensive. It is important for us to recycle plastic, glass, metal and paper separately because plastic cannot be reused if it is heated with a different material. Recycling plastic decreases land pollution and carbon emission.

Maybe, one day, the Pacific Ocean a.k.a "The Great Pacific Garbage Patch" will shrink to a size of a pea.

Next time you're watching the Broadway show Wicked, check out the reusable tote bag!
